Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Oedipus achieved honor, glory, richness and power that was totally provoked by the curse he had, causing all this to be transformed into suffering, sadness and tears.

Explanation:

When Oedipus was born, his father received the information that Oedipus was cursed to kill his own father and marry his mother. In fear, his father ordered the servants to take the baby and let it hang in a tree, far from the kingdom of Thebes, where Oedipus's father was King.

Oedipus ends up being rescued and adopted by the king of Corinth, who raises him up as a true prince, however, Edipus, as an adult, leaves Corinth to follow his own life and during his journey ends up finding his biological father and killing him after A discussion. Oedipus comes to Thebes and kills a creature that terrorized the place, which made him a hero to the people who crowned him king of Thebes and with that he married the queen, his mother.

This made Oedipus a man of wealth, honor, glory and a reputation that made his life splendid, until it was revealed that all this was part of his curse, which made all the triumph he had in disgust, humiliation and sadness.

Explain the literary device used in line 11 about sonnet 73 written by William Shakespeare

Answers

Alliteration: Alliteration refers to the repetition of the same consonant sounds in the same lines of poetry such as /s/ sound in “Death’s second self that seals up all in rest.”
Imagery: The use of imagery enables readers to understand the writer’s feelings and emotions. Shakespeare has used visual imagery such as, “When yellow leaves”, “sunset fadeth in the west,”, “by black night doth”, “thou see’st the twilight” and “boughs which shake against the cold.”
Symbolism: Symbolism is the act of using symbols to signify ideas and qualities, giving them symbolic meanings different from literal meanings. Shakespeare has used symbols such as, “Black night “and “sunset fadeth.” Both night and sunset symbolically stand for end or death.
Consonance: Consonance is the repetition of the same consonant sounds in the same line such as /b/ sound in “Which by-and-by black night doth take away.”
Personification: Personification is to attribute human characteristics to inanimate objects. Shakespeare has used personification in the eighth line, “Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest” as if the death is human to have a self.
Metaphor: Shakespeare has used metaphors at several places in the poem such as, “When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang”, “the twilight of such day”, “black night” and “glowing of such fire that on the ashes of his youth doth lie.” These metaphors convey the late stages of his life. These phrases represent present, past and future time.
Metonymy: It is a figure of speech that replaces the name of things with something else with which it is closely associated. Here “bare ruin choirs” substitute the stripped branches.

Theme of the passage " the guest" by Mona gedney

Answers

Answer:

Sorry, but your question is not complete and I could not find any online resource that had the passage you had in mind, but its really easy to find the theme of ANY book.

First of all, you need to find out what the book is talking about. Is it a book that talks about the consequences of war? Effects of famine? Importance or honesty? When you find out what the book is talking about, the next step becomes easy.

Next, and very important step is to find out the moral lesson the book is trying to give or what message it is trying to pass across.

With these two key points in mind, you can easily get what the theme of the book is.

N. B: A theme is the subject matter or focus of the book.

A theme can either have a theme of love, rejection, betrayal, patience, reverence, etc.

Good luck.
